JAKARTA - Indonesian football is threatened with sanctions from FIFA. The threat came after being deemed to have failed to host the 2023 U-20 World Cup.

FIFA is still considering the sanctions that will be imposed on PSSI as the parent of national football. There are light sanctions, but there are also severe sanctions such as being dropped from FIFA membership.

If severe sanctions are given, of course many parties will be harmed. Players, especially Indonesian future stars, are included in it.

The Indonesian U-20 national team striker, Arkhan Kaka, has opened his voice about the fate of his career in football if Indonesia is later subject to FIFA sanctions. He has no specific plans about the fate of his football career.

Currently he is still waiting for what sanctions will be given by FIFA for Indonesian football.

"For myself, I don't know how it will be in the future. We also don't know what the sanctions will be from FIFA. Anyway, I want a career abroad," Arkhan said as quoted by Antara, Friday, March 31.

Saat hadir di acara aksi "Aksi Duka 1 Juta Pita Hitam untuk Timnas dan Piala Dunia U-20", Arkhan tak bisa menghindari kedukannya karena gagal tampil tampil di Piala Dunia U-20.

"The reaction was sad and disappointed too. Because I wanted to be there soon but suddenly failed just like that," Arkhan added.

On the same occasion, the 15-year-old striker also responded to the words of a handful of people who said that Garuda Nusantara could play in the U-20 World Cup through an easy route due to its status as the host.

"They don't know, because they are also our ordinary people who know more about sports and we as players know better," Arkhan explained.

The owner's full name Arkhan Kaka Putra Purwanto is the youngest U-20 national team player because he is only 15 years old.

The son of former Purwanto Suwondo footballer rose to the level by joining the Garuda Nusantara squad after his brilliant performance with the U-17 national team under the tutelage of the Milky Way coach in the U-17 Asian Cup qualifiers last year.
